摘要:
A method produces a semiconductor device having an interconnection structure disposed above a substrate, wherein the interconnection structure has an interconnection and an insulator layer including a low-permittivity layer. The method includes an etching step forming openings in the insulator layer to expose a surface of the interconnection by dry etching, a cleaning step cleaning the surface of the interconnection and the openings in the insulator layer, and a forming step forming another interconnection by filling a conductor material into the openings. The cleaning step includes a first cleaning process using a cleaning liquid, a rinsing process using a rinsing liquid including water and carbonic acid or organic acid, and a second cleaning process using a neutral or alkaline hydrogen aqueous solution that is supplied to the surface of the interconnection and the openings in the insulator layer.

Disclosed is a method of readily removing particles from a stage, that is, a stage particle removing method for removing particles from a stage that holds a planar workpiece. A resin film is placed on the stage, and collected from the stage. The resin film is coated over at least one surface of the planar workpiece such as a semiconductor wafer or glass substrate. The resin film is brought into contact with the stage. The resin film may not be coated over the planar workpiece itself but may be coated over a dedicated planar piece shaped similarly to the planar workpiece, for example, a thin metallic plate that is very smooth. The used resin film is peeled off from the planar workpiece or dedicated planar piece, and the resin film is coated again. Thus, the planar workpiece or dedicated planar piece can be reused.

A semiconductor encapsulating resin composition which is powdery particles of a resin composition comprising an epoxy resin, a curing agent and an inorganic filler, and produced through a series of unit operations inclusive of melt-kneading and pulverization of a raw material mixture, wherein foreign metal having magnetic property originating from metal materials constituting production apparatuses used in the unit operations and contained in the powdery particles are selectively recovered and removed by a drum type metal classification-recovering apparatus. This semiconductor encapsulating resin composition provides a high reliability semiconductor device not containing magnetic foreign metal.

In supervising the channel stability of a nuclear reactor, the thermal power and the coolant flow quantity in each fuel assembly are determined by signals produced by a plurality of neutron flux detectors installed in the nuclear reactor, and signals regarding other operating conditions of the reactor, and the thermo-hydrodynamic stability of each fuel assembly is judged by the above-mentioned thermal power and coolant flow quantity as well as the measured values of such parameters as inlet subcooling of the core and of the pressure in the reactor vessel. Or the stability limit of a selected one of the parameters is determined. Then, the threshold of the thermo-hydrodynamic stability or the stability limit is compared with the actually measured value thereof so as to determine a stability margin.
摘要:
A compressed exhaust gas containing nitrogen oxides discharged from a compressed absorption type nitric acid plant is treated by adding ammonia or an ammonia precursor to the gas and passing the gas through a NO.sub.x removing catalytic layer to an exhaust gas turbine wherein the temperature of the main flow of the exhaust gas in the zone from the point of which ammonia or an ammonia precursor is added to the outlet of the exhaust gas turbine is maintained at a temperature higher than T.degree. K = 10.sup.3 / (1.91 - 0.228 log P) [P : a sum of partial pressures of ammonia and nitrogen oxides (atm.)] and feeding an inert gas into the place of the zone in which the exhaust gas stagnates.

A semiconductor device includes: an insulating film including a porous insulating material and formed above a substrate; an interconnection wire including copper and buried in a groove formed at least in an obverse surface of the insulating film; and a barrier insulating film including an insulating material containing a nitrogen heterocyclic compound and formed over the insulating film and the interconnection wire.
摘要:
After an SiC film (4), an SiO2 film (5) and a silicon nitride film (6) are formed sequentially on an organic low dielectric constant film (3), by performing O2 plasma processing to a surface of the silicon nitride film (6), an oxide layer (7) is formed on the surface of the silicon nitride film (6). Then, a wiring trench pattern is formed on the silicon nitride film (6) and the oxide layer (7), and a resin layer (10) on which a via hole pattern is formed is formed. Subsequently, a portion of the oxide layer (7) exposed from the resin layer (10) is removed along with unnecessary particles.
